The at method in pandas is used to get a single value from a dataframe based on the row index and column name. The at method needs two parameters: the row index and column name.
It then returns the value of the specified position.
The
atmethod is similar to thelocmethod since it supports label-based indexing.
The illustration below shows how the at method works in pandas:
The syntax of the at method is as follows:
Dataframe.at[rowIndex, columnLabel]
The at method takes a rowIndex and a columnLabel.
The at method returns the value at the corresponding position.
The key error is raised if the parameters passed as row index and column labels are out of bound or not present in the dataframe.
The code snippet below shows how the at method works in pandas:
We can also use the
atmethod to assign a value on a particular index. This is shown in Line 14:
import pandas as pddf = pd.DataFrame([[0, 2, 3], [0, 4, 1], [10, 20, 30]],columns=['A', 'B', 'C'])print("Original Dataframe")print(df)print('\n')print("Get a value")print(df.at[1, 'B'])print('\n')df.at[1, 'C'] = 10print("New Dataframe")print(df)
